I've got the Blues...

Blue haired dolls that is!!

So I tried to bring all the blue-haired dolls I have together. I've got quite a group - 18 with blue hair(wig or rooted, it's still blue!!) and I've got 3 with blue in their hair. As I put the group of 18 together I couldn't help but think... SOMEONE'S MISSING!!! I don't know who it is, but I know there's a missing person!

So I should introduce everyone! 
Back Row: In the back my biggest blue haired beauty - Tempe! She's an American Girl(formerly Felicity), she's wearing a Blythe wig :) She's holding a barbie mini fairy and mermaid and has a fairy on her head. Next to her are two Sailor Moon Ami dolls(aka Sailor Mercury!). They are NOT the same doll! They are different. Yes the second one has a weirdly purple fuku. I got her like that, I don't know why her scout uniform is purple, but it's hers and not Saturn's. Next to them is Ellowyne holding a barbie mini mermaid. 
Second Row: Ghoulia Yelps to start! She's wearing Frankie's dress and Draculaura's boots. Next to her is a Zodiac girlz doll, Virgo. Next to her sitting down are 3 Barbie Fairy dolls. I actually have 2 of the blue one on the end(even her skin is blue!!) but the other one is kinda "flying"(i.e. hanging) from the ceiling in the other room.
Front Row: Two sets of "twins"! The first set are both LIV Daniela dolls. Not the exact same doll, but since they are both Daniela I call them my twins. They are wearing 2 of the blue LIV wigs I have. Also my second set of twins - Zodiac Girlz Gemini! I bought 2 Gemini dolls so I could have the twins. Originally the box just has one doll with 2 sets of clothes.. actually I think the skirt was reversible.... The Zodiac Girlz are the only other doll next to Sakura who Monster High dolls can wear their clothes. Also the Gemini twins are holding Marina! She's a lalaloopsy. So cute!!

Another pic for good measure!

Ami I and Ami II - Close-up you can see the differences in the dolls.

Tempe of the fairies!

LIV twins Daniela and Daniella lol - The one on the right is actually wearing a Moxie Teenz outfit. The jacket fits great but the dress is a bit loose. You have to catch the velcro on the extreme edges to make it tighter. The moxie teenz shoes wouldn't fit LIV, but they fit Monster High great!!!

Don't forget Marina in the middle!!



Also the almost blues! These girls have some blue in their hair, but it's not all blue.

My scene Nolee, she's got some blue under her hair. It's very pretty. She's a roller skating girl so she's quite bendy!
Light up fairy - she still lights!!
Barbie - I got her quite a few years ago. She was part of this line of crazy fashion barbies (I got all 6)

Oh crap!! I just realized now that I'm missing Lagoona Blue from my almost blues girls!
Well that's no good!!
I decided to put Callisto in the pic too since she's got some blue hair! I made Callisto... she's my cute leopard girl! <3
Lagoona is wearing other parts of the MH girls outfits. I don't really have clothes for the MH dolls so everyone just kinda swapped outfits!

Mina is too cute!

Oh like I said before I'm just nuts about Mina!!! I couldn't help myself as I took more pictures of her last night.
I decided to try on the blue skirt I made for Ellowyne and I was just sure it would fit. I was right! Mina and Ellowyne appear to have the same wait measurement. I tried to see what another of Ellowyne's dresses would look like on Mina..... Yea Mina's boobs are FAR too big to wear Ell's dresses! But at least the skirt fits! So um yea... the craziness. I warn you I just took a bunch of pics of Mina cause she's cute!! XD

Cute? Me?

I kept thinking as I looked at this photo later that if the bodice and skirt were white.. It would be a beautiful wedding outfit!!

Mina hitching up the skirt - she's just so cute!!

There was just something about this pic that made Mina look so... mischievous! She's almost like a forest sprite or something. She's really just showing off that she still has her socks on! But.. I just love the look on her face :)
Photobucket
I solemnly swear I'm up to no good!
I took this pic cause of the shadow on the other one... but I just ended up liking her expression more in the other photo!
Photobucket

She's up to something! I know it!!
Photobucket
hehehe
She looks a bit tired. She's still cute!! XD

Also today Mina got a new friend! Marina!! The adorable Lalaloopsy doll she's holding.

~Mina and Marina~

Mina gets a new bodice

Truthfully when it comes to Mina and Juste, I get a bit obsessive. I have a lot of trouble making clothes for these two- I have no patterns for them! Also when it comes to taking photos... oh yeah, since they pose better than any other doll I have I feel I just have to take a million pics! They are so special to me!!

So I made a new bodice for Mina. I suspect it might fit Ellowyne also, but I made it for Mina. It's actually made from a ribbon!! I loved the ribbon so much and it was so wide I figured it would have to work and I was right!

So here's Mina in her new bodice(and old skirt and newer socks!)

Photobucket
She's got Helena(the cat) with her. Mina loves that cat and is always with her!

Here's the back of the bodice:

And for some reason I couldn't pass up this side view of Mina!!

Here Mina is laying down petting Helena

Closer!
Photobucket

Oh I love Mina!!! She takes such good pictures! XD

And a note about the socks... They were made from real socks! Once socks are ready to be thrown out you can just reuse them for the doll. I've made like 6 or 7 pairs for Mina from old ones. They are very cute!!

Ellowyne in Gold

So today I also finished a new dress for Ellowyne! I made a gold dress... It's... ok

I was a little off on the sleeves so they hang down - turns out it's not so bad but I also am a *TERRIBLE* judge of making darts!!!!!

So here's what I happened to make

I know this photo looks a bit weird - maybe because I used wired ribbon on the bottom of the dress and it just has a funny shape because I stuck El on her stand and the wire stayed weird!

Princess Peach!

So I finally finished my Princess Peach dress. I've only been working on it since last Halloween...
Well I just decided it needed to be done so I did it.

Here's Jess modelling the pink monstrosity!
